April 6th - Andover Crew racing Exeter, Tabor and St. John's Page 1

The weather was beautiful for our Grandparents' Weekend at the boathouse. It sunny in the low 60s with a 13 mph NW wind. The wind running against flow of the river cause some chop and white caps upriver on the race course. Our boys team suffered from last minutes changes in B1 due to illness that rippled down the lineup. At this stage of the season a missing rower is a major disruption for a boat. The high point of the afternoon was a powerful 6.8 second victory by our G1 over the visitors. The closet race of the day was our G3 where we completed the race in 359.1 seconds but Exeter squeezed in at 358.5 seconds. They obviously peaked too early, we will get them at NEIRAs.
